Early in 1978 Frank Zappa played London's Hammersmith Odeon and these concerts provided the source for the Basic Tracks for 1979's Sheik YerBouti. Hammersmith Odeon, compiled & produced by Gail Zappa and Joe Travers is now available in the Special Party Pack 3-CD set designed to celebrate FZ's 70th Birthday on December 21.

Varg is on shaky ground with this release. Only a couple tracks stand out and there is only one (the final track) that possesses something Burzum has not done before. This is nowhere near as good as what Burzum has done, but also no where as bad as his worst.
